I found this piece fascinating. I've always thought what purpose does flying up far into the sky serve? For me it is waste of technology and serves no real purpose, kinda like kids doing things kids think are neat. Waste of energy and pollutant too. But then I love the open road.....

Someday, there will be places to visit in outer space for recreational use. However, just look at our current airline industry to see what that form of transportation will turn into.
Loosing you luggage will turn into a new level.

I think once the bad guys are swept away and trump cuts the economy loose moon trips will be not to far away. Maybe expensive tho.
Did NASA ever get that moon rocket to work?

This is a good example of how a person of low intelligence thinks.
Space innovation drives technology. Period. To say space exploration is a "waste of technology", when you have to innovate technology to explore space, is a sad display. It shows the person has no understanding about how things work.
midcan thinks getting rockets to do this is a "waste of technology":
Wow.
